Colonial Station Camco,[1] also known as Colonial Station Cam'co,[2] was a terrestrial planet located within the territory of the Chiss Ascendancy in the Unknown Regions. The Chiss Caregiver Mitth'ali'astov, known by the core name "Thalias," was born there before she became a sky-walker navigator.[1]
In 19 BBY,[3] Thalias undertook her Trials to become a Trial-born of the Mitth family at the family's homestead on the Chiss capital and homeworld, Csilla. At the homestead, Thalias' first Trial was to trace the path of her life on a mosaic that was a stylized map of the Ascendancy. As such, the Caregiver first set foot on the icon depicting Colonial Station Camco.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
In Star Wars canon, Colonial Station Camco first appeared as a mosaic depiction in the 2020 novel Thrawn Ascendancy: Chaos Rising, written by Timothy Zahn as the first novel of Star Wars: The Ascendancy Trilogy.[1] It was first pictured—labeled as "Colonial Station Cam'co"—on a map of the Chiss Ascendancy[2] provided by publisher Del Rey as a bonus for purchasing[4] the physical, e-book, and Audible audiobook versions of[5] the 2021 novel Thrawn Ascendancy: Lesser Evil, written by Zahn as the final novel of the Ascendancy Trilogy.[6]
The Colonial Station Cam'co system was originally introduced in the Star Wars Legends continuity, where it was mentioned in the 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas by Daniel Wallace and Jason Fry.[7]
